Answer:
$900
Step-by-step explanation:
a)Off given on purchasing a TV= 20%
20% on TV = $ 180
Let the original price of TV set $ x
According to question,
20% of x= $180
×x= $180
x = $ 180× 5
x= $ 900
Hence, Original price of TV set= $ 900
b) By second method,
20%= $180
1%= $ 9
100% = $900
Hence, the original price $ 900
Answer:
(The image is not provided, so i draw an idea of how i supposed that the problem is, the image is at the bottom)
Ok, we have a rectangle of length x by r.
At the extremes of length r, we add two semicircles.
So the perimeter will be equal to:
Two times x, plus the perimeter of the two semicircles (that can be thought as only one circle).
The radius of the semicircles is r, and the perimeter of a circle is:
C = 2*pi*r
where pi = 3.14
Then the perimeter of the track is:
P = 2*x + 2*pi*r.
b) now we want to solve this for x, this means isolating x in one side of the equation.
P - 2*pi*r = 2*x
P/2 - pi*r = x.
c) now we have:
P = 660ft
r = 50ft
then we can replace the values and find x.
x = 660ft/2 - 3.14*50ft = 173ft
